The Database of Arabidopsis thaliana Annotation (D At A) was created to enable easy access to and analysis of all the Arabidopsis genome project annotation. The database was constructed using the completed A.thaliana genomic sequence data currently in GenBank. An automated annotation process was used to predict coding sequences for GenBank records that do not include annotation. D At A also contains protein motifs and protein similarities derived from searches of the proteins in D At A with motif databases and the non-redundant protein database. The database is routinely updated to include new GenBank submissions for Arabidopsis genomic sequences and new Blast and protein motif search results. A web interface to D At A allows coding sequences to be searched by name, comment, blast similarity or motif field. In addition, browse options present lists of either all the protein names or identified motifs present in the sequenced A.thaliana genome. The database can be accessed at http://baggage. stanford.edu/group/arabprotein/

Amino acid transporters participate in the transport and distribution of amino acids in plants and are vital for plant growth and development. Despite their importance, few works have investigated the functions of amino acid permeases (AAP) amino acid transporters in soybean. In this study, we re-identified the AAP family genes in soybean using a new public genome database and cloned a soybean AAP gene renamed GmAAP6-like.

Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are traditionally considered incapable of encoding proteins, but new evidence suggests that small open reading frames (sORFs) within ncRNAs can actually encode biologically functional small peptides. Despite growing recognition of their importance, a systematic exploration of plant ncRNAs with coding potential has remained largely uncharted territory, especially in the context of their translational activities. By collecting and analyzing Ribo-Seq data from 226 Arabidopsis thaliana samples, we have integrated extensive information on Arabidopsis ncRNAs with coding potential and developed the AthRiboNC database, a novel and dedicated database that consolidates extensive information on ncRNAs with coding potential in Arabidopsis.

Article Synopsis
- The study identifies 169,197 fusion transcripts in various plant species, suggesting that these transcripts contribute to physiological processes beyond cancer, including stress responses and morphological traits.
- By analyzing various datasets, the researchers confirm the active translation of some fusion transcripts and explore how DNA sequence organization and chromatin structure influence their formation.
- The findings indicate that a large number of fusion events result from alternative splicing and that genes located near each other are more likely to fuse, with many fusion transcripts not being translated into proteins.
The evaluation of transcription factor binding site prediction tools in human and Arabidopsis genomes.

Background: The precise prediction of transcription factor binding sites (TFBSs) is pivotal for unraveling the gene regulatory networks underlying biological processes. While numerous tools have emerged for in silico TFBS prediction in recent years, the evolving landscape of computational biology necessitates thorough assessments of tool performance to ensure accuracy and reliability. Only a limited number of studies have been conducted to evaluate the performance of TFBS prediction tools comprehensively.
